Sappada trip planner

Apart from the beauty of its mountain landscapes, Sappada also boasts a particular rural architecture of wooden houses built using an ancient technique called "blockbau." Thanks to its location in the imposing Dolomites, the village serves as a popular tourist destination in both winter and summer months. Don't be surprised by the local Sappadino dialect, unchanged for many centuries and more akin to German than Italian. Tradition reigns supreme here, in architecture, dialect, folklore, festivals, and the production of typical cold cuts and cheeses. Come in the winter to ski, snowboard, and ice climb. Return in the summer to take long walks, hike, and explore the culinary delights of a unique Italian region near the Austrian border.
